I'm kinda regretting swearing fealty to byz in my Rome republic game because all the money they making off me is making them unstoppable.

One good faction is all I need...I have a single male claimant in my court with a weak claim and a bunch of kids in other courts from my epic seduction of byz princesses.

yeah i found in my Naples -> RE game becoming a vassal is more trouble than its worth. but now im regretting it since the byz went theocracy and i gotta take it piece by piece

I think if I get a strong faction off, I will be able to use my riches to beat them. The key is to not go too prematurely just because of how long it has taken to set up.

That god-awful Ireland game I posted on like page 5 of the thread is the real way to beat the united Caliphate. Just don't be a pussy and smash them with your troops. Land holy orders if they ask. Make as many vassals as humanly possible members of your dynasty, even the baronies, because dynasty members usually like you more than random yahoos. Plus if they usurp you, who gives a poo poo. You'll get it back eventually. I only ran into trouble when I got a lovely 0 martial rear end in a top hat from Tanisty, but Crusader traits and stuff would usually make them decent.

SeaTard posted:Sometimes he can inherit (or the title will be destroyed from tribal invasion and then recreated), turning the ERE into a theocracy. yeah. The Byzantines got turned seniority, and the eldest member of the ruling family was the EPoC (who had vassals of his own beforehand). So once he inherited the ERE, it turned open elective like any church holding.

It's stupid that the laws get changed to church succession just because a priest inherits it. IMO it should only do that if there's no other valid heirs, like he's the last dynasty member or something.

IMO it should only do that if there's no other valid heirs, like he's the last dynasty member or something. it's already possible for titles to have different inheritance laws so i don't see why it would be a big problem for paradox to change it so for this example the byzantine empire would still be feudal seniority even though the current holder is the ecumenical patriarch. this would also fix the problem of "welp you inherited a bishopric or city somehow, game over". that said given paradox's track record with changing CK2 they'd probably manage to gently caress it up by making all feudal titles open elective or something.

i know we've said it a lot in just the last few pages but jesus christ have the EU4 devs teach the CK2 devs to not suck rear end at their job.

Do games posters realize that a republic in ck2 is no more free or influenced by the people than a feudal monarchy, why are people so proud of their Irish britannian Republic maps

Whoa, are the Irish isles in the earliest start of CK2 different than they used to be? It seems like they are tribal now from what my friend is telling me.

Some people don't like that but it's kinda fun IMO. You get to mess around with different mechanics for a while and can easily go feudal or republic since you're already catholic.

Soo close to putting my guy on ERE throne...young guy took over and I got a 200 plot to kill him and his heir is female, which means I should be able to outright declare war against him. Too bad I can't make a faction for myself.

How exactly do you do the Roman Republic thing. Do you just seduce women with claims until you inherit your republic as someone with a claim?

Sometimes you can invite princesses to court to marry to your dudes which is good because the kids will stay in your court.

Master seducer is really good too since oyu just use the special seduction move and it works instantly.

I've yet to even try all the focuses too since the ones I use are in support of something specific I want to do. I wish war wasn't so poo poo.

I wanna see more melting pot cultures like Norman. HIP has like Norse-Gael which sounds like a white supremacists wet dream and probably is the result of it. I usually play a Greek so it would be cool to see hellenized versions of cultures.

Do you guys like going to max crown law or only high? I usually stick at high because I like having my vassals slaughter each other (and also expand outside the realm without me doing anything)
